[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
For this week's Friday Theme, I found this image in my archive from a beautiful Alpine ski resort of Zillertal. I rarely see such a heavy snowfall, so I immediately took the camera to capture the moment.

The Zillertal is the biggest valley branching off the Inntal in Tyrol, Austria drained by the river Ziller. It is surrounded by the strongly glaciated Zillertaler Alpen to the south and east, the lower grass peaks of the Kitzbüheler Alpen to the east and Tuxer Alpen to the west. The largest settlement is Mayrhofen.
The Zillertal branches off from the Inntal near Jenbach, about 40km northeast of Innsbruck, running mostly in a north-south direction. The Zillertal proper stretches from the village of Strass to Mayrhofen, where it separates into four smaller valleys, the Tuxertal and the sparsely settled, so-called Gründe - Zamsergrund, Zillergrund and Stilluppgrund. Along the way, two more Gründe and the Gerlostal, which leads to the Gerlos Pass and into Salzburg, branch off.
Unlike other side valleys of the Inntal, the Zillertal rises constantly, but only marginally, from one end to the other - only about 100 m over 30 km. Permanent settlements cover about 9% of the entire area of the Zillertal municipalities.

Hi Kristof
This made me shiver (snow not to far from coming here, looks like a normal day for me)
Nice idea for the theme, good overview of the scene, to show the volume of snow ie the cars, trees and snowplow.

HI Kristoff
You are giving us a preview of what's soon to come in our part of the world.
A very nice winter scene well captured, especially with the blue light before the evening sets in.
Dot

Hey hey Kristof , you really want to bring back memories of our last winter here in Canada ( the worst in a long time i mean the most precipations that is !) hopefully we get less snow this year my back 's still sore from the shovelling ...lol !
Back to your photo , indeed you captured a heavy snowfall in progress ,the snow removal machine headlights on appears to be the only moving thing in this scene like the only capable one in fact to run in this storm , well this the impression i get here,well observed and nicely presented
lousy weather for sure ( not only in Austria ,,lol ) but a lovely shot !,
TFS,
Carol
